I love it when clients are well-prepared for our meetings. For instance, last week a new client pulled out a one-page agenda. He’d brought an extra copy for me. Organization. Details. Love it! Question number one on his notepad:
Not good at guessing people’s ages, I ball parked his age at maybe 35. So I read aloud his question…Am I too old? I asked him to tell me more about that. He did, too. He proceeded to explain that he’d “heard” that you needed to be “established” in a career by age 35. I asked him if he believed that. Well, he didn’t know what to think. “I’m 37 and still trying to get it together.”
What’s old, anyway? Is it the age of 42? 70? 64? 53? 37? I don’t know. Are you too old?
